 Are you natural or relaxed (is that your natural hair colour and texture)

I am natural and use my wigs as a protective styling option.

 What are your go to products?

I keep it really natural and use good old fashioned castor oil and shea butter.

 What is your all time favour hairstyle?

My go to look is a bob. Long or short depending on my mood which I can wear in a variety of ways.

What are your 3 top hair care tips?

1. Look after your natural hair first. You may not want to wear hair extensions forever, so will need a good head of hair to fall back on.
2. Wash your your hair regularly
3. Treat your hair extensions like you would your own hair. They are an investment so treat them with care.

Do you have a hair routine?

I try to wash weekly using a natural shampoo and then plait my hair down without blowdrying. I rinse out the sweat in-between washes if I go to the gym.

Travel around Asia
Design and build my own house

What made you laugh this week?

I had dinner at a friends on Sunday and it turned into a mini debate about women who wash their plates up after dinner the first time they are invited round… The men surprisingly all agreed that it was a deal breaker if she did do the dishes that would never be invited back again. You had to be there, but the passion and frustration some guys displayed while explained previous experiences had us ladies in hysterics.
